Yvonne grew up with her grandparents, which taught her how to take good care of their basic needs. Yvonne learned ways to help keep her grandparents healthy. The appreciation Yvonne received from them motivated her to do the same for the others.

My favorite caregiving moments are when clients ask me “When will I see you next?” or “Thank You, for taking care of me.” My most favorite heartfelt remark from my clients is “I miss you already.” Hearing those words, lets me know that I’m providing meaningful quality services to the client.

"Jocelyn began her career with BrightStar Care as a CNA, in early 2019.  She was incredibly skilled, enthusiastic, and her Clients loved her!  Jocelyn then went to Nursing School, and completed her RN degree.  We are so fortunate to have her return back to us as our Assistant Director of Nursing.  Jocelyn has been a wonderful addition to the team caring for our Clients and on boarding, and educating our Caregivers.  She is always upbeat with a can do attitude, she is a quick learner and an amazing nurse!" - from the BrightStar Office Staff

After caring for my mom with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), I became familiar with the disorder in all physical aspects, such as mobility issues ranging from ambulatory to bedbound. The experience also showed me the emotional distress from this disorder. I also realized that caring for her around the clock was a job that someone would not be able to do without suffering burden and stress. When she passed a year ago, I felt the need to make a difference in people’s lives. I wanted to ensure those who need care have the opportunity of being in an environment where their needs are covered.
